I am not in Dubai to plot against Buhari, I am here on medical ground - Atiku


Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, on Sunday debunked reports that he was part of a conspiracy against President Muhammdau Buhari
He said “political mischief makers and enemies of unity,” alleged that he has been hosting political meetings against the current government at Burj Al-Arab, Dubai.
Atiku said contrary to the rumours, he was currently in Dubai with his family for physiotherapy on his injured knee.
In a statement by his media office in Abuja, yesterday, and signed by his Media Adviser, Mazi Paul Ibe, Atiku said he was embarrassed by the deliberate falsehoods being spread against him by political opponents who are bent on causing distraction for President Buhari at a time all energies should be channelled into helping the President actualise his change agenda.
Atiku stated that his medical treatment was his private affair, which should not be politicised by anybody to achieve sinister objectives.
He said: “Whether at home or abroad, the Turaki is preoccupied with his unassailable support to President Buhari and his administration, especially in this critical time, as it works assiduously to turn the fortunes of our dear country around and make Nigeria work for the greater good of Nigerians.
“Rumour mongers and mischief makers are toxic to the progress of the APC and the country at large”, adding that “the campaigns are gone, and therefore, all energies should be constructively devoted to the success of the Buhari administration.
“This is yet another plot of the enemies of our country and democracy to divide, divert attention and distract the APC in its avowed commitment to secure the country, provide jobs for the mass of unemployed youths, build needed critical infrastructure, enthrone a regime of probity and accountability and pull the country out of the economic woods it has been consigned to by locust years of mismanagement.”
